joewilly12 Posted March 28, 2018 Author Share Posted March 28, 2018 Thomas Rawls set to visit Jets Posted by Josh Alper on March 28, 2018, 6:22 PM EDT Getty Images The Jets added Isaiah Crowell to their backfield early in free agency and they are scheduled to meet with another running back on Thursday. Brian Costello of the New York Post reports that the team is set to host Thomas Rawls for a visit. Rawls was not tendered by the Seahawks as a restricted free agent and visited the Chiefs earlier this month. Rawls had a bright start to his career with 830 yards for Seattle in 2015, but injuries have dimmed his output the last two seasons. Rawls has missed 11 games and averaged just over three yards per carry after bursting for 5.6 yards per carry during his rookie season. Adding Rawls would make for a competitive backfield situation for the Jets as they have Bilal Powell and Elijah McGuire on hand in addition to Crowell.

varjet Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 I predict that the good RBs go higher than expected. Some can sneak into the first round. I think there is going to be a resurgence of the RB position. The way to get them is to draft them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This class is loaded and we should take advantage. But Jets may be preparing just in case there is another position higher in value around that pick (e.g., OG/C) or if they trade the pick on draft day to swap with the giants for #2.

My only concern is with other more pressing , higher priority needs. Edge rusher, TE and OL come to mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joewilly12 Posted March 30, 2018 Author Share Posted March 30, 2018 The NFL's Riskiest Offseasons Aren't Happening Where You Might Think The Jets got rid of Muhammad Wilkerson but let Suh use them as his safety school, and they traded up from sixth to third in the draft after identifying "six or seven" players they liked in this year's class. (Think about it...) They aren't so much playing low-risk football as they are chasing their tails like a golden retriever at a fireworks display, so let's leave them out of this.

This is an ignorant quote. We had Shell handling Suh last year so I wouldn't say it would have been a huge upgrade, or even an upgrade at all, from Mo. If we sign Ealy, it's like replacing either of them right now and way cheaper. And the Bowles part, we all know, is an attempt at a smokescreen. But it's a decent attempt at trolling.
